Ask the jla, black canary/green arrow, outsiders, black canary/green arrow/others, etc. You say "lose" like they beat him most often while hes trying to over come them, when you know he simply accomplishes what he set out to do then leaves. Thats the only concern he has.
Lol you know good and well comics dont work like that srank. If batman or nightwing had lethal appendages on their hands, they wouldnt once get the opportunity to plunge it through his skull. They can hit him because it wont kill him. What about the opponents he faced with lethal weapons? Why didnt they kill him? Oh yeah, because thats comics.
Like I said he has a better win to lose ratio then Slade. I've already mentioned the JLA and Outsiders fights, and they are both blatant PIS. Flash running into the sword of a stationary DS? How Green Lantern was beaten? Metamorpho? Geoforce? Blatant PIS. You can cite them if you'd like, but just keep in mind no one will take you seriously if you do. Slade preps for fights and he doesn't win them, you could - I suppose - argue that they aren't technically "loses" but that is just semantics. He runs away because he can't win, you might prefer to call it a tactical retreat, but it is a loss. Not that any of that matters, because that is all done with prep, without prep he has trouble one on one with streets, and without prep Wolverine would fold Slade up like a lawn chair.
That's not how comics work, but its how the forum works. Wolverine isn't going to kill Slade in a comic, because it's a comic, but he has no such limitations in a forum fight. There is no PIS enabled here or plot devices to save his opponents, unlike a comic fight where he is limited to glancing blows, and scratches, here he can fight to the best of his abilities, and he will hit Slade just as frequently (more so, but what ever) as Batman or Nightwing do, and all of his attacks will have three twelve inch blades on them. Wolverine will fight like he does in Wolverine: The Best There Is, and limbs will be coming off in seconds. Nightwing and Batman aren't allowed to hit a character because they won't kill them, other characters are forbidden from connecting cleanly because they will kill.
